Board of Directors
The Board of Directors is responsible for directing and controlling the affairs of the credit union. Though they don't perform the tasks themselves, the board is ultimately responsible for making sure the credit union:
- Is capably managed by a knowledgeable CEO and experienced staff
- Operates using sound business practices
- Complies with all applicable laws and regulations
- Achieves the goals stated in the charter and the strategic plan
- Fulfills its purpose of making low-cost loans and encouraging thrift
- Provides adequate financial reserves to cover delinquent loans and other losses
- Protects against unauthorized or illegal acts through safe operating procedures and purchase of fidelity bond coverage
To carry out its role in meeting these requirements, the board develops policies, approves programs, hires and evaluates the CEO, and appoints committees.
At Valley Credit Union, we are always on the lookout for passionate individuals interested in shaping the future of our community by joining our Board of Directors. If you're eager to make a difference and contribute to our mission, please email us your interest - ([email protected]) We're excited to hear from you.
